• Process Optimization: Streamlining workflows and programming to cut down production cycle times.
• Tooling & Fixture Design: Creating custom jigs, assembly fixtures, or robotic cell layouts using 3D CAD software.
• New Product Introduction (NPI): Cooperating with R&D teams to transition from the solid model to repeatable manufactured product.
• Root Cause Analysis: Troubleshooting product quality failures, production floor bottlenecks, machine defects, scrapped production, and equipment downtime.
• Documentation: Authoring standard operating procedures (SOPs), process routings, and managing Bills of Materials (BOMs).

Qualifications & Requirements

• Education: A Bachelor's degree (preference shown for Masters) in Mechanical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering.
• Experience: 5+ years of shop floor experience required.
• Software App Competence: Proficiency in CAD systems like SolidWorks or AutoCAD, alongside ERP/MRP business systems.
